I have the same problem and it is getting annoying. I got this as a Christmas present in 06 and technically speaking have only used it for a little over a year. It was working fine until recently when even if my memory stick is 1/4 used, it reports file error found with a blue screen; then the pictures taken later were blurry. And it is definitely not my batteries. What is up? Please help!

every time i take a picture, it comes out blurry

Not only are my pictures all coming out blurry, but I have this little red flashing hand on the viewer. It's even there when the camera is on a table, completely still. I've checked the auto focus, the image mode. I don't know what to check next.

Any suggestions?

All my pics are blurry too especially indoors/evening photos. Nothing I do seems to work. Ive had it 3 years and would love to take a decent photo with it as I know it can! Pre focusing doesnt work either and the flash always goes off twice, blinding everyone. Help!

Probably a silly answer but are you prefocussing by pressing the shoot button half way down and allpwing the camera time to set it's own focus. When it looks OK press the button down fully to take the shot.
Can you switch off the autofocus on your camera? Maybe you've done it by mistake. There's usually answers for out of focus comments in the troubleshooting section of your manual )if you have one) if you don't do a Google and find one to download.
